Perth and Santa grew up as inseparable family friends, their closeness brushed off as innocent even as unspoken feelings lingered beneath every hug and late-night secret. 

At eighteen, Perth left to study abroad, and silence turned promises into heartbreak. 

Years later, fate brings them back together - Santa, a rising designer guarding hidden scars, and Perth, a successful lawyer carrying regrets. Their reunion is awkward, tender, and inevitable, but shadows of the past threaten to break them once more. 

A story of childhood promises, aching silences, and love that refuses to fade - even when the past won't let go

The Faded Vows by lynk992925

He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.

Shuttered Hearts by hehehe_DuMfUk

"He offered to be your patron? And he said he's *drawn* to you? Santa, this is either the most romantic thing ever, or the most manipulative." Satang's voice was a mix of awe and suspicion. "I don't know, satang. He just... he looked at my work, and he saw it. He understood what I was trying to do. No one's ever done that before." Santa hugged his arms, a shiver running through him despite the warm afternoon. "And... when he looked into my eyes... it was like... electricity." "Electricity that could power a small city"

How to Lose a Boy in 365 Days (and Still Wins His Heart) - [PondDunk | NaraNata] by Rose_Creation

Pond Naravit has it all-looks, brains, charm-but his love life is cursed. While his friends flaunt picture-perfect romances, he's stuck dodging blind dates and his grandma's prophecy about a birthmark that dooms him to die single. Then Dunk Natachai returns-his childhood nemesis, all grown up and heartbreakingly beautiful. The boy Pond once teased (and accidentally humiliated by mocking a secret love letter) is now cold, confident, and determined to "fix" Pond's dating life... by setting him up with everyone but himself. But as old sparks flare-thanks to one hotel bed, a drunken almost-kiss, and a rain-soaked jacket-jealousy brews. Especially when Dave Phakphum, the school heartthrob Pond thought the letter was for, starts openly flirting with Dunk. And when Dunk confesses the letter was always meant for Pond-Pond realizes he never forgot it. In fact, he memorized it. Maybe love was never cursed-just misunderstood.
